Hi, I don’t know why my WiFi is slow. It’s updated and rebooted but I have never got speeds above 100mbs. Speed at modem 1.2gb. Modem does not have a bridge mode and has no WiFi mode. The modem is provided by Spectrum (DOCSIS 3.1 Modem / Voice ET2251). The Orbi’s firmware is v6.3.8.5_1.4.80.
The ET2251 is a DOCSIS 3.1 modem (only a modem) Bridge mode is an option for routers and is not relevant to modems.
The most common reason for an Ethernet connection to be "just under 100Mbps" is a problem with the connection: the cable itself or the RJ45 connection on one end or the other (perhaps a bent wire). The first step is usually to replace the cable.
